Commercial Driver School

Commercial Driver School™ is a privately owned CDL training school with four convenient locations across Washington state. Our instructors are all experienced commercial drivers who provide clear, hands-on classroom and on-the-road training for anyone seeking a Class A, B, or C commercial driver’s license. To fit your busy life, new classes start nearly every week, with both day and evening sessions Monday through Friday. Thanks to partnerships with many respected companies, we offer ongoing job placement assistance to our graduates—connecting you with the many local and regional opportunities available in trucking today. This commitment to student success has helped make Commercial Driver School™ one of the fastest-growing and most respected training schools in the country. Owners Victor and Petra Ratz attribute that success to our outstanding team, who deliver world-class training while living out four core principles every day: 1. Nurturing authentic human relationships with customers, employees, and colleagues is our top priority. Technology and efficient systems matter, but they should never replace genuine, accessible human connection. 2. Companies that embrace diverse people, cultures, and ideas are better equipped to compete in a complex marketplace. Using that diversity to find creative solutions is a real competitive advantage. 3. Excellent leaders clearly and consistently communicate—and model—the company’s foundational principles. They encourage everyone to let those values guide their decisions and empower them to act on them. 4. Employees who are challenged, mentored, valued, and rewarded for their contributions genuinely love their jobs—and customers feel it. That’s why we create a culture where reasonable mistakes are treated as lessons learned, and both personal and professional growth are top priorities.
